Dirty Rowdy Thing




Title: Dirty Rowdy Thing, Book 2 of Wild Seasons
Author: Christina Lauren
Published: 11-4-14, Simon and Shuster Gallery
Genre: Adult




From the New York Times bestselling author of Beautiful BastardBeautiful Stranger, and Beautiful Player, Book Two of the brand-new Wild Seasons series that started with Sweet Filthy Boy—a story of friends, love, and lust.

Despite their rowdy hookups, Harlow and Finn don’t even like each other...which would explain why their marriage lasted only twelve hours. He needs to be in charge and takes whatever he wants. She lives by the Want-something-done? Do-it-yourself mantra. Maybe she’s too similar to the rugged fisherman—or just what he needs.


REVIEW

The story continues with the friends who met in Vegas.  Three girls, three guys.  This is Finn and Harlow's tale.  The chemistry is spontaneous between these two.  Spending time in California on business, Finn becomes the distraction that Harlow needs from the heartbreak happening at home. 

"It's Vegas all over again: rowdy, with his palm on my ass and his other hand digging so hard into my hip I look forward to the tiny bruises I know I'll find tomorrow."

 At some point the friends become more and neither one wants to admit they need each other until it's too late.  


"He could only do rowdy because he felt what I felt: that whip-crack unleashing that comes when you meet the person who frees you."

Trust is a huge issue between these two and it is ultimately what causes a rift between them.  Harlow is so stubborn! I found myself wanting to knock some sense into her.  She just wasn't willing to accept Finn's love freely.  

It was great to see the rest of the gang playing a part in this story.  The authors continue to weave a great tale of love, friendship, trust and belonging.  Start with book one, just so you have the background.  However, this book could be a stand alone.  Looking forward to the 3rd book out in 2015.
